Ethereum active users surge 137%, average transaction fees multiply 16-fold

2020, Ethereum's fifth anniversary, once again becomes the hottest topic. First USDT 'migrated' to Ethereum, various stablecoins continued 'printing money', then liquidity mining 'ignited' DeFi with total value multiplying 4-fold within the year, plus Ethereum 2.0 testing progressing smoothly with good staking expectations… These substantive positive developments have made Ethereum the market's focal point this year. According to CoinMetrics data, ETH price has broken through $300, with over 148% gains within the year.
